This girl looking for confrontation at Disney is bizarre. If you read her other tweets, she wore her MAGA hat just looking to fight. This is what our young have become? She's angling for a Fox News gig. Just because people don't confront you, doesn't mean they don't think you are an idiot.

^^^ To me, that girl's Twitter account sounds exactly like that other rude ultra-right conservative blonde woman-- she's a Fox talking head, isn't she? Her name starts with a J, I think... I can picture her in my head, I just don't know who she is.
And KUDOS to John Kerry for using words like *disgraceful* and *destructive* to describe Trump's statement.
I'm so sick of the people around him who must feel like the have to mince words and be so ultra-polite. I wish SOMEONE who is currently in Congress (a Republican, actually-- ANY Republican) would just SAY 'that was stupid' or 'that was a lie' or 'that was disgraceful' instead of 'that's not exactly correct...' According to what we've heard, there are SOME out there who don't agree with him, right?

Kyle Griffin...
“New filing from Mueller's office: Manafort has revealed on monitored phone calls that, despite the jail not allowing prisoners to send or receive emails, he appears to have developed a workaround. bit.ly/2NFcTNY”
It appears Manafort has his own bathroom and can wear his own closet he’s and now has found a way to send and receive emails.
Unbelievable

It appears Manafort has his own bathroom and can wear his own closet he’s and now has found a way to send and receive emails. Even has his phone AND laptop too! Mueller filing: Manafort has personal phone, laptop, not required to wear prison uniformBY AVERY ANAPOL - 07/11/18 01:48 PM EDT “Manafort has access to a separate workroom at the jail to meet with his attorneys and legal team,” the filing says. “Visitor logs from the prison indicate that each week Manafort has had multiple visits with his legal team.” In one of the phone calls, Manafort told the caller that he is treated like a “VIP” in prison, has a self-contained unit with a private bathroom and shower, and is not required to wear a prison uniform. The filing also asserts that Manafort has a personal telephone, laptop with extension court for private use in his own unit and access to all necessary documents. thehill.com/homenews/administration/396512-mueller-filing-manafort-has-personal-phone-laptop-not-required-toMuller filed, because Manafort claimed he didn't have access to lawyer and all the papers, but he in fact does!!

he can talk to his attorneys multiple times a day on the phone, and he has- and he sees them in person weekly- but they're still saying they need a delay because there is an 'inability to prepare with counsel?' Unbelieveable. I hope the judge does NOT grant his continuance. He's a weasel. He should be in gen pop with the rest of the prisoners, in my opinion.

This from Rep. Jim Jordon...
“Now @cnn is contacting all 100+ of our former staff and interns asking for dirt on me. Getting desperate! How can you ever trust such #fakenews?”
Prompted this truth from Ben Rhodes..
“Actually contacting former staff and interns is called reporting, kind of the opposite of fake news.”
But of course the Republicans will latch on to Jordan’s claim they are looking for dirt on him instead of the truth.

@fred, revirdsuba99, imsirius, a question (for anyone who can answer it, really)-- what did the Senate vote on yesterday that had to do with DT?? I heard something about '97 Senators" this morning on the radio, and John Kerry's statement t alludes to something the Senate voted on related to Donald Trump, but what was it?

I find that advice by the Embassy rather insulting if I'm honest and certainly fear mongering.There are thousand upon thousands of Americans living in this country, many of them in London. The public issue and the protest is against Trump and him and his policies alone NOT with the American people. Many of them are joining in these protest over the next two days.

The Senate confirmed Brian Benczkowski to lead the Justice Dept criminal division 51-48. He was formerly the lawyer for Alfa Bank, which is tied to Putin and other oligarchs, and is subject to Mueller's investigation, has never tried a case, and is next in line behind Rod Rosenstein. He also is closely tied to Sessions. He will be able to oversee the ongoing Russia investigation. And if trump fires Rosenstein, then this guy, with ties to Russia, takes over. Manchin was the only Democrat to vote yes.
Also. theWhite House just released executive Order to end the competitive selection process for Administrative Law Judges, making them political appointees who can be fired at will.He is taking control of all aspects of the Judicial branch.
The Republican Party is systematically undermining our justice system.

It's hard to feel so powerless over what's happening.

The Embassy does have a responsibility to caution Americans about protests directed at the American President, whether or not you agree with the protests and/or plan to participate. The last thing the Embassy wants to see is a MAGA clad tourist trying to defend his President this week. That's the way I read the warning. Not so much as fear mongering, but a don't be an idiot plea directed at Americans.

He's lying again tweeting The European Union makes it impossible for our farmers and workers and companies to do business in Europe (U.S. has a $151 Billion trade deficit), and then they want us to happily defend them through NATO, and nicely pay for it. Just doesn’t work!The US exported $11.5 billion in agricultural products to the European Union last year. In fact, the 28 countries of the European Union are the United States’ fifth-largest export market for agricultural goods, like tree nuts and soybeans. LINK
What on earth does he gain by constantly lying about facts that are so easy to check and verify. Too many Americans don't bother to check and verify. They throw up their hands and say they can't possibly know what to believe or which sources are legitimate, so they're just going to go with Trump. He must be super smart and reliable, because he's rich and sticks it to people they don't like. Ask Michael Cohen how that worked out

Not so much as fear mongering, but a don't be an idiot plea directed at Americans. I hear what you're saying but I also wonder how many will take it and interpret it as casii did and how many in the US think the same when they see it being reported on the way it was in the link, that Americans generally need to take precautions when visiting the UK. Even if they are being an idiot as you put it, we as a country, do not go round targeting or threatening violence to tourists because of a political disagreement with the President or administration of whatever country they are from. We've had a few undesirable head of states visit this country and whilst we might disagree with their policies and protest at their visit we don't blame or target the citizens of those countries. Warning them of the possibility of protest against their country is one thing but telling them to lie low and be cautious of possible violence is something else. Generally the protests that involve other countries policies that we have in this country are non violent unless counter protesters also hold a protest which is very unlikely over the next couple of days as he has very few,if any. fans in this country.

His supporters simply do not care. I fact checked one of his lies to a supporter and she said "well, that's your opinion". I told her "no, it's fact, and here is the proof". She looked at the proof, sniveled up her mouth and nose, and said "whatever, I know what I believe". I believe that many of his base are now so embarrassed that they won't ever say they made a mistake. I have a friend whose DH is a huge Trumpsters and he said that he knows he lies and he knows he's probably in Russia's pocket, BUT “if I admit this, then I look like a f'ing asshole for voting him in.” So he just agrees... Stupid I know, but maybe many feel the same way. I hope people like him realize the old adage Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me🤞🏻

I actually read that advice as a way of them obliquely saying to Americans 'don't get involved in any of the protests' but then again, maybe that's just my conspiracy theories talking again. It certainly wouldn't look good on the world stage for Americans to be protesting along WITH the host country, so maybe they think this advice will make Americans stay out of it?? (then again, Trump doesn't care if people protest him HERE, so... maybe not.)

What the heck does he expect NATO to do if Russia suddenly shuts off the tap to the gas they're supplying to German homes for heating.

(then again, Trump doesn't care if people protest him HERE, so... maybe not.) We've had a few Americans that are living in this country interviewed on a variety of radio programmes that agree with the protests. Most of them openly admit they're embarrassed about the way he's behaving........I think they must all be democrats
